To be honest it doesnt bother me. They are all fed a quality food, exercised regularly, wormed , healthy and happy. I sometimes wonder if it is a natural behaviour...most carnivores eat the intestines , stomach and poop of their prey and i wonder if this is an extention of that natural behaviour?

Still not nice when thy kiss you afterwards though {{{{Bleurghhh}}}}}

Ang
It is completely natural, many animals often digest there food 2 or 3 times before they have got all the nutriants from it...
